Could There Be a Worse Time to Sell Tickets to See Club America?

Typically I would not expect CBS2 Chicago to give a Bridgeview rat's ass about a foreign club arriving in town to play an exhibition game at Toyota Park. But when that club is coming straight in from Mexico City in the midst of Swine Flu hysteria...people, do I even have to say it?

Ain't that something? The kind of mainstream press attention you want, you can't get. And the kind you can get, you don't want. Nothing to scare off the potential spectators like the possibly unfounded chance to be an extra in a real-life version of Outbreak.
